Abstract
The level structure of Pb-208 has been investigated with the (n,n'gamma) re action with accelerator-produced neutrons. From gamma -ray excitation funct ion measurements and gamma-gamma coincidences, the decay scheme was establi shed. Level properties were elucidated with lifetimes determined by the Dop pler-shift attenuation method and multipole mixing ratios determinations fr om gamma -ray angular distributions. Several new levels below 6 MeV have be en established, and many questionable placements have been confirmed or eli minated.
